Hi Rick,
I found the clipboard viewer very cumbersome and don't like it. Wouldn't it
just be easier to go to a blank document. Paste whatever is on the clipboard
and view the information there?

  I don't have a keystroke for the Jaws clipboard, but here's how the
Windows
  clipboard can be accessed.
  HTH,
  Ricque
  *Clipboard Viewer
  The Windows Clipboard is a short-term storage area where data resides
  between the time you cut or copy and the time you paste. The Clipboard
  Viewer is useful
  if you want to know what data is currently saved on the Clipboard.

  XP has an integrated Clipboard Viewer, but unlike previous versions of
  Windows, it's in hiding, so for ease of access, let's create a Desktop
  shortcut to
  it. Right-click a blank area of your Desktop, click New and Shortcut. In
the
  Location field, type C:WINDOWS\system32\clipbrd.exe\. (Bonus Tip: To
create
  a similar shortcut, Win98 users can type C:\WINDOWS\clipbrd.exe; In Win2k,
  use C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\clipbrd.exe.) Click Next and give the new shortcut a
  name. I went crazy and named mine Clipboard Viewer. I don't know what I
was
  thinking, but you only live once, so why not? After naming the shortcut,
  click
  Finish. Any time you want to see what's on the ol' Clipboard, just
  double-click your new Desktop shortcut.

  I had my wife try this in XP without Jaws and it did not work.  So it must
  be something that Jaws is doing.

  Judith,
  I know that, and I assumed he probably remembered it, too.  My question
is,
  is this a modification of the Windows clipboard by way of clever jaws
  programming, or is it a clipboard that's proprietary to jaws.  He was
asking
  about what I said on this, not about this Jaws feature you describe.

  Rich, I think the feature you are referring to is appending the clipboard.
  For example, if you have a list of phone numbers and want to  take all of
  them individually from different sources and eventually paste them in one
  document this is what you do.
  1.  Select one of the names and numbers you want to put in your list.
  2.  To select it to the clipboard using the simultaneous keystroke of
  windows key and the letter C.

  Do this repeatedly until you have all your names selected and paste all of
  them into your document with the usual keystroke of control v.

  To get out of your accumulated names or whatever list is being appended in
  your clipboard, just select anything and copy it with control C at which
  time you will be asked if you want to terminate the append function.  hth,
  Judith
